    Default P.I.T.F.A.








    Will definitely be taking the eng/tranny out separately from my other Cress.

    Wish I could just drop it off and let you pros do it! So it is possible take them out together without cutting out pretty much all of the front support? I'm all for doin things the easy way, but don't wanna end up smashing anything in the engine bay.

    Oh ya and if you guys need any left over parts lemme know. All I wanted was the eng/trans and now ill be takin it to the scrapyard.

    Rainy day update:

    Well, can't work on the car today so I tried to stay productive. Sooooo close to being done. Engine is in, Tranny is in, new gas tank is in. Just need to finish hooking everything up.

    Few random pics related to the car, lol:




    Engine's everywhere!




    Tastes purple?




    And here's what happens when it's raining but I still feel like doing stuff to my car.

    Another update. Got everything hooked up last night and put the battery on the charger. Only had about 30 minutes this monring to fool around with it but I put some gas in it, and tried to crank and got nothing. Engine turned over fine but wouldn't start.
